cables too long tho, they should offer shorter length option

I cant see them selling too many of these.
who for one needs that... secondly, who in their right mind that actually DOES need that much juice for a high end system, will buy thermaltake.....?

Wow, 3 12V rails with PFC O_O. Just what those SLI's need. Push the envelope.

I've tried to argue "overkill" here, doesn't work.

it's true..
Even my PSU is overkill, but it has nice features and looks nice

actual wattage does not affect my purchase choice too much, most decent PSU's thesedays will run most anything.

Well, it seems like a fair number of people are starting to realize that RAID-0 isn't very beneficial to the avarge homeuser.

Maybe eventually people will realize that they only need about 50% as much power as they think
